The Kaptain's Log:
"Wrong Way" Corrigan and the Right Way to Liveby Manuel Miles, aka Kapt Kanada
When I was a kid, I noticed that my parents' generation had a
phrase which they used when they took a wrong turn or made many
another little mistake; it was, "Wrong way, Corrigan!" I adopted
this myself, and can be overheard to mumble this phrase upon
occasion, such as when I turned the wrong way into a one-way
street a couple of years ago.

HR3245: A positive step in an imperfect worldby Thomas Andrew Olson
While I agree in principle with Lehr Duquesne's assessment of HR3245
[in the last issue], the "Commercial Space Act of 2003", I still support the bill, and
would humbly suggest that the larger picture is being overlooked. This article is an
attempt to explain that picture.

The Rake Taxby Jim Duensing
Taxation is theft. Some entity which has not earned something takes
it by force from its rightful owner. Because of this basic truth, I've tended to stay
out of movements which seek to improve the system of legalized theft. But, occasionally
someone would ask me whether I preferred a flat tax or a national sales taxthe two
most popular forms of taxation amongst those in the liberty movement.

The Republican Mushroom Cloud of Smoke and Mirrorsby Todd Andrew Barnett
In recent weeks the Bush administration and its minions had
backpedaled carefully and subtly on several of their most
egregiously allusive assertions which greenlighted the war in Iraq.
Because of their recent public admissions, one can easily surmise
that the president and his cronies had accorded themselves the most
brilliantly displayed record of snowing the American people into
accepting and believing their lies, deceptions, exaggerations,
falsehoods, and chicaneriesall of which were artfully devised to
plant the impression that Hussein had engineered 9/11. Let's not kid
ourselves hereaside from the fact that Bill Clinton had engaged
in a foolhardy sexual dalliance with a White House intern, he,
compared to President George W. Bush, ranks as an amateur.

The Campaign Finance Absurdityby Anthony Gregory
The most ironic thing about the campaign finance reform advocates is
that they presuppose the very same fact about government that their
opponents donamely, that government is corrupt.

Pro-Lifers Link Euthanasia to Abortionby Wendy McElroy
The heartbreaking story of Terri Schiavo, the severely brain-damaged
Florida woman who has been kept alive for more than a decade by a
feeding tube her husband claims she would want removed, has captured
the media's attention.
